Does the idea of giving customers a behind-the-scenes look at your R&D feel a little…revealing? We get it. But it's often the best way to offer a novel experience that builds trust with customers.

Local Projects is making a triumphant return to the stage at @instagacep, the world's premier event for Customer Experience pros, to share how to develop a narrative engine for innovation and R&D at your experience center.

Our session will be helmed by Creative Director @StephenBaker, alongside Nathan Pisik of @AMD, Patrick McMahon of the @gatesfoundation, and Phillip Tomlinson of @philips.

We'll see you in Santa Clara, #GACEP2026!

“We have nothing to fear from the facts.”

So says Marland Buckner, CEO of the @shockoeinstitute, a new national org dedicated to revealing the enduring impact of racial slavery on our shared American experience, and our client.

Today, we open the Institute’s signature exhibit, “Expanding Freedom”, a new exhibit that traces the evolution and enduring impact of racial slavery, and helps visitors understand and reframe this history’s impact on our current moment.

It’s a reckoning with our shared history, a reframing of a present built around enormous wealth and economic disparity, and a wish for a future led by groups like the Shockoe Institute that invite us to learn, reflect, and act to create solutions that improve our civic life and economic opportunity.

Come visit Expanding Freedom starting next week at Richmond’s Main Street Station located in Shockoe Bottom, a neighborhood that was once an epicenter of domestic slave trade, and now an epicenter of our search for a freer future.

“The exhibition goes beyond battlefields and spycraft to show how camouflage has entered art, pop culture, and fashion.” — @fastcompany’s Nate Berg on Camouflage: Designed to Deceive, our new exhibition for the @spymuseum.

The National Public Housing Museum is one of the top 3 new museums in the country!

USA Today’s editors get together annually to choose ten new museums to honor, and then put the top honors up to public vote, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to see this small but deserving museum at the top of the list.

Over 18 years in the making, the Museum shares the success story of public housing in post-WWII America and beyond, inside the only surviving building of the historic Jane Addams Home on Chicago’s Near West Side.

Last week, Stephen Baker and Kate Watson-Cole took the Freund Visiting Designer Lecture stage at Washington University’s Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts with one idea: the best designed experiences don’t impress visitors—they transform them.

They answered questions from our engaged audience, including friends from the Saint Louis Science Center and Mackey Mitchell architects, had the opportunity to review amazing student work through studio visits, and paid a visit to Wash U’s Kemper Art Museum to discusshow the team is rethinking museum education.

Thanks to Professor Jonathan Hanahan and the team at Sam Fox School for their hospitality!

Look twice. Then look again.

Camouflage: Designed to Deceive—our special exhibition for the @spymuseum—is opening this week!

The exhibition unfolds across four immersive galleries, tracing camo's roots in animal mimicry through its strategic evolution during World War II to today’s digital conflicts, where hiding in plain sight has become both an art and a necessity.

These themes are brought to life by large-scale physical scenography, artifacts, and examples of real camouflage, including:

– A super-sized model of a “dazzle ship,” a fascinating nautical experiment from the WWI-era, along with models of each dazzle ship, borrowed from the Imperial War Museum’s collection
– Mannequins sporting camouflage uniforms used from China to Ukraine, the Syrian desert to the Himalayan Mountains
– A monumental media piece that challenges visitors to spot camouflaged soldiers hidden in various environments, including a jungle, desert, and snowy mountain peak.
If you’re in Washington, DC, tickets are available now through the link in bio ⬆️.

Although Dr. Opal Lee (@therealopallee) describes herself as “just a little old lady in tennis shoes getting in everybody’s business”, she’s so much more than that. An activist and educator, Dr. Lee is the founding force behind @juneteenthmsm.

In 2016, at age 89, Dr. Lee walked 1,400 miles from Fort Worth, Texas, to Washington, D.C. in her bid to make Juneteenth a federal holiday.The 2021 commemoration earned her the nickname “Grandmother of Juneteenth.”

Now, Mattel is immortalizing Dr. Opal with a new @barbie doll sporting her annual Walk for Freedom signature look - white joggers, sneakers, and a custom T-shirt.

Selma. Birmingham. Montgomery. For many Americans, these places are synonymous with the fight for civil rights.

As National Urban Justice League CEOMarc Morial puts it, “There’s a lot of focus on the Southern experience — segregation, slavery, and overcoming it. What’s not widely known is that slavery existed in the North.”

Now, the story of the Northern Civil Rights Movement will find a home at The Urban Civil Rights Museum in Harlem, opening this Fall across the street from the Studio Museum.

Nestled inside the Urban Justice League’s new 400,000-square-foot Manhattan headquarters, the 20,000-square-foot museum will cover the Harlem Renaissance, the Great Migration, social justice, and more.

Read about the opening in Gothamist through the link in our bio.

You can always find to-shelf talent on the @artdirectorsclub (ADC) awards jury. This year’s no different as our Director of Visual Design Joshua Graver joins the ranks.

Josh made his mark on iconic brands like Prada and Arper, and cultural institutions like the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery and the Pratt Institute Museum of Arts and Design.

Good luck to all the entrants in this year’s awards - we can’t wait to see what the jurists highlight.
